TeleVue clamshell bolts

[A McEwan]

Hi,

The bolts that TeleVue use in their clamshells. The ones with the handy flip-out handle "ears" to enable easy access and use.

Are they a proprietary TeleVue product or are they available elsewhere? If so, what are they called?

I'd like to get some for some other rings that use bolts to fix in place and aren't so handy.

Thanks,

Ant

Thanks. Those might work. I'll have to take some measurements. Bike ones don't look the right shape though but the ones linked to might just.

I have those RS style handles on the carrage locks on my milling machine and i personally dont like them. My ones just dont seem to work properly. I had been planning on making some similar to your televue ones. But i cant really make up my mind what will be best yet, so will be interested in what people suggest.
